Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, and their six kids touched down at Con Dao Island Airport in Vietnam this morning on the latest of their international travels. The Jolie-Pitt family arrived in Vietnam off a flight from Japan, where Brad Pitt premiered Moneyball on Wednesday. This stop off is especially significant to one member of the family, Pax, who was born in Vietnam and adopted by Angelina and Brad in 2007. This is reportedly Pax's first visit back to Vietnam since he left four years ago, and local news outlets are saying that the family is expected to visit Pax's orphanage while there.

Shiloh, Maddox, Zahara, Vivienne, and Knox also came along for the adventure, but today Pax got some solo time with mom and dad to explore the city. Over the years Angelina and Brad have spoken about making sure their adopted children are familiar with their native countries, and last Spring Maddox got to accompany Angelina to Cambodia where she shot her Louis Vuitton campaign.

I doubt either Brad or Angie talked with media about whether Pax had ever been back to Vietnam before tko and Pax was adopted in 2007. The family has gone to Cambodia and Ethiopia numerous times and they haven't talked about it.Are you really dim enough to believe that because a child is in an orphanage their parents are dead? Pax' "grandfather" was found by the VN media after the adoption and he said his daughter was a heroin addict who abandoned her baby(ies). Angie was told Zahara's parents had died of AIDS and Maddox' name in Khmer translated to orphan so he might have been.

This is reportedly Pax's first visit back to Vietnam since he left four years ago, and local news outlets are saying that the family is expected to visit Pax's orphanage while there.......
So he was in an "Orphanage", sounds like his parents died...
Good question!
Also notice first time back since he was adopted in 2009. So read the article Freyda...

Any moron who have read up on a Jolie-Pitt article will know that Pax and some of the other kids aren't always thrilled to have paparazzi in one's face,And its wonderful that Brad and Angie want their kids to stay familiarized with all their native countries.To say he isn't thrilled or happy is farcical..............just saying.

Hey DN ....... who said Pax had never been back to Vietnam before this? Zahara has been to Ethiopia several times in the last 6 years but there weren't any photographs so it didn't happen right? Has Meg Ryan taken Daisy back to China? Katie Heigl takes her kid to Korea right? GMAFB!!

wow, so he visits his native country every four years. big deal. he looks thrilled. NOT. too bad you don't have the pics of st. angie when she first adopted maddox. you can see how different her face looked.
